This bill, a private relief measure, aims to grant Luana S. Cordeiro lawful permanent resident status in the United States. It specifically makes her eligible for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status, notwithstanding certain general numerical limitations and eligibility requirements outlined in sections 201(a) and (b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. This provision ensures a direct path to permanent residency for her. Furthermore, the bill addresses potential immigration obstacles by waiving any grounds for removal or denial of admission that are currently reflected in Department of Homeland Security or Department of State records. It also mandates the Secretary of Homeland Security to rescind any outstanding order of removal or deportation against her. To benefit from these provisions, Luana S. Cordeiro must file her application for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status, along with the appropriate fees, within two years of the bill's enactment. As a consequence of granting her permanent residence, the total number of immigrant visas available to natives of her country of birth will be reduced by one in the current or next fiscal year. Importantly, the bill explicitly states that her natural parents, brothers, and sisters will not receive any preferential immigration treatment under the Immigration and Nationality Act solely due to their relationship with her.
